Fuse F13/ON + 24V and COM1 to COM7
X1/100 - earth connection*

-When ignition key S139 is in position 1, ignition ON, relay K4A is activated and allows power supply
to fuse F13.

B118/RHS-arm in carousel X3/ON
*S446/Low impact. X27/ON Y20/ON Y101A

*Switch S446 for low impact position must be pressed more then 0.8 seconds to obtain a self holding
circuit, Impact will be shut-off if switch S446 is released within 0,8 seconds (Y20/OFF). Pressing the
button under 0,3 sec, only starts the flushing.

*Switch S446 for high impact position must be pressed more then 0.3 seconds to obtain a self holding
circuit, Impact will be shut-off if switch S446 is released within 0,3 seconds (Y20/OFF).
To press the high impact position button on switch (S446) directly without first starting the low impact
will result in no self holding curcuit or flushing.
Note ! When changing back to low impact, press the low impact pressure button on switch (S446) longer
then 0,3 sec, otherwise the impact will stop.
